The Jewish Advocate was a weekly Jewish newspaper serving Greater Boston and the New England area. It was established in 1902 and, with 118 years of publication, was the oldest continuously-circulated English-language Jewish newspaper in the United States until it suspended publication on September 25, 2020.[2][3] Before May 28, 1909, it was briefly known as The Jewish Home Journal and then as The Boston Advocate.[4][5]
